She may have ditched a duchess – but she certainly hasn’t dented her CV.
After walking out of her job as personal assistant to Meghan Markle (she stayed for just six months), Melissa Touabti has landed a job with one of the richest families in London.
Melissa, 39, has been snapped up by Natalie Livingstone, journalist wife of billionaire Richard Livingstone who owns super-posh stately home Cliveden House.

It’s thought Melissa got to know property tycoon Richard when she organised Meghan’s pre-wedding stay at £500-a-night Cliveden (pictured) before she married Harry in nearby Windsor
Melissa is to be weekend nanny for the couple and their three children at their £20million Notting Hill home.
Melissa has also worked for Robbie Williams and Madonna and a source tells me: ‘She is one of the best in the business, so it was little wonder that the Livingstones snapped her up.
‘She was never going to be out of a job for long.’

Meanwhile, Prince William’s former private secretary Miguel Head, 40, has left The Firm well and truly behind him, taking up a research post at Harvard University.

Say cheese! There’s a new Royal snapper in town
Move over Annie Leibovitz, there’s a new snapper desperate to make her mark – Sarah Ferguson.
The Duchess of York took this picture of her daughters for International Women’s Day on Friday.
Move over Annie Leibovitz, there’s a new snapper desperate to make her mark – Sarah Ferguson, who was very pleased with her photo of Eugenie and Beatrice
She was so pleased with her snap of Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie that she posted it online, calling them ‘strong women’.
I suspect Dara Huang, the former love of Bea’s boyfriend Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi, might opt for a different adjective…
Anything Bros can do, the Kemps can do too.
Following the success of Matt and Luke Goss’s BBC4 film Bros: After The Screaming Stops, Spandau Ballet heart-throb Martin Kemp has let slip that he and his brother Gary could be about to make their own documentary.
When asked about the prospect at the Global Awards last week, Martin told me coyly: ‘A mockumentary? Oh, maybe. I’m not going to say any more, I can’t say any more.
‘But I can take the p*** out of myself. You have to before somebody else does it.’
I wonder who loves themselves more, Jennifer Lopez or her partner Alex Rodriguez?
The pair enjoyed their own battle of the selfie during a sunshine holiday last week, with baseball legend A-Rod, 43, snapping himself looking deep and meaningful as the sun sets – only to be upstaged by the pop star and actress.
J-Lo, 49, posted the picture of her photobombing triumph, with the caption ‘#beachbums’.
But I’m not sure it was a victory. When was the last time anyone saw her at the back of a snap, especially when dressed in such a skimpy cossie?
